Free Touchscreen in cheap car back-up monitor for Raspberry Pi

I have a great find to share with everyone, I found a resistive touchscreen sensor embeded in a cheap car back-up monitor that i was using for the Raspberry Pi.

Cheap car back-up monitor for Raspberry Pi without the stand

As you can see, I have removed the stand/leg thing because it was standing in my way. I bought this from BestBuy because I wanted it then and didn't want to wait for a week for one to ship from eBay (I overpaid by double I think).

Upgrading HP Compaq 6715s with a Motorola Surfboard SBG6580 wireless card

So after pulling apart the dead modem/router I wanted to use the only working part scavenged.

I opened my wife's laptop to access the wi-fi card. This is the easy part as it is just one screw for the panel and 2 screws that hold the wi-fi card in place.

So this year did not start well for me. When I finally woke up on the 2nd of January my internet kept going down on me. After numerous restarts and resets of my wonderful modem/router combo it died. The top 3 lights would flash for a sec and then nothing. That is the last time I buy one of these all-in-ones (on a side note, don't get the Belkin wireless router it restarts every time you change any settings).

Anyway here is what I found inside it:

A main board with a mini PCI Express slot.
